Esmat is a Soft Tissue Therapist accredited by the Australian Association of Massage Therapists (AAMT). Through extensive industry experience and continued education, Esmat is able to apply Advanced Musculoskeletal Skills to target the individual needs of each patient and help provide treatment options.
Esmat has been in the industry since 1990 and in that time has worked alongside some of Perth’s best Chiropractors, Osteopaths, Physiotherapists and Podiatrists to help treat patients with long and short-term acute/chronic pain and injuries.
Esmat’s patients have included Top Athletes, both in training and in-competition and she has also worked with Motor Vehicle Accident and Workers Compensation claims, treating patients with Acute and Chronic Pain, Neck, Back and Shoulder Pain and Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI),
Esmat’s patients describe her as a warm person, bubbling with energy, enthusiasm and passion for her work in Soft Tissue Therapy.
After gaining AAMT accreditation, Esmat worked as a Soft Tissue Therapist for Prue Fitzpatrick’s Remedial Massage Clinic and Subiaco Sports Massage Clinic, both in Perth.
A good few years later, Esmat founded Victoria Park Sports Massage Clinic and worked across a wide-range of patients with diversified needs, including chronic pain management, injuries and stress management.
She also managed and trained a number of therapists working alongside her at the clinic. After several years, Esmat parted ways with Victoria Park Sports Massage Clinic to embark on a new journey that would enable her to concentrate and focus solely on her passion for Soft Tissue Therapy and treatment.
At your initial consultation,Esmat will discuss with you your medical history, your current body condition and any other relevant factors pertaining to your injury or pain. This is in order to enable her to design the best possible treatment protocol for you, to properly understand the health issues that you face and thus help deliver the best possible treatment for you. Because muscle memory returns within days it is always necessary to have a follow up treatment as soon as possible. For acute and chronic problems regular treatments are initially suggested for you to realize the difference in your body.
Sometimes oil is used to first massage and warm the area of concern so as to soften the tissue, before working on the muscle at a deeper level. You may experience some discomfort initially especially if you are already in pain, however this will alleviate after treatment.You may also find other areas of the body will be taken into account during treatment due to the natural compensation you make with your body when you have an existing injury or are in pain and discomfort.
Esmat will discuss ongoing treatment with you and will provide a comprehensive treatment plan based on the underlying cause of your problem. You may also be shown and asked to do certain exercises after your treatments in order to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment.
